QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CROWN.

what is a steam treatment?

Guests are given a steam treatment with almost every service at Shear Black. Guests sit under the hood of the hair steamer, and actual steam begins to penetrate the hair follicle and scalp. This helps your hair to absorb the nutrients from The Fruit Mask and conditioner and also aids in hydration and moisture retention.

why plant-based products?

Lots of today's products are full of additives and chemicals that can be harmful to the hair and scalp in the long run. Going plant-based and vegan, insures that products are made with quality, nature-derived materials. The result is healthy, stronger hair, for life.

do I need a treatment?

The Fruit Mask is recommended for all first time guests and those with brittle or dry hair. Its a blend of natural ingredients meant to aide in hair growth, add nutrients, and moisturize hair from root to ends. For those with chemical damage, Olaplex is used to restore the hair bonds.

is color healthy for my hair?

does yogurt coloring work as well?
